Pig festival in Quebec

In August, a festival was held in the Canadian province of Quebec, whose name in French sounds like Festival du Cochon. During this annual event, local producers present their products from pork to visitors, but its main feature is a traditional competition in which participants need to catch a pig. Every year a huge number of people gather here (about 40 thousand people), and the participants in this pig festival are people who are not at all afraid to get dirty, because its venue is a rather large pool of mud. And although the fight against pigs in the mud is not at all simple, but what kind of funny shots are obtained ... However, the animals themselves, judging by the photographs, do not feel much pleasure.
